Not to be picky but the 99's to 2001 have 260 HP not 275.

And please don't take this the wrong way, but be thankful to those V6 cars!

I know they are not fast and suck compared to the V8 car in performance. But the original 1964 mustang was no massive performance car either. The name of the game was to sell a sporty car at a reasonably cost that would catch with the younger auto buyers, just like our modern day V6.

The V6 sales numbers are what keeps the mustang alive! If you took the V6 sales numbers out of the picture I guarantee you that the mustang would be traveling the road of the Camaro and Firebird.

But I of course agree with you that there is no comparison between the 2 cars

If you are a performance minded person (even slightly) get a GT.
